And yes, gun bunnies...there are prices on the firearms!

The budget...this is going to be easy shopping so I was going to make it more difficult with the fundage/time limit...but the prices are crazy high so how about a budget of $1.000

Let us see what you can do with that amount.

The post apoc setting is equal to the Walking Dead...wandering staggering zombies.

I liked this one. I am missing real close range weapons, but as usual I'm more of a flight vs fight type of situation, especially since these guys are slow movers.

    Total     $994.54    
           
 $29.99          
 Gloves, cold weather w/spot for a heater, finger tips exposed to reduce issues with bows and guns          
         
           
 $49.99          
 Gortex Gloves, cold weather, water proof, wind proof          
         
           
 $129.99          
 Pack w/side rifle harness, big enough to carry most necessities while mobile          
         
           
 $19.98          
 2 packs ($9.99 each) each pack is 20 warmers, plus 4 bonus footwarmers (48 total)          
         
           
 $69.77          
 Sleepingbag          
         
           
 $16.99          
 Kills scent, both for hunting and to reduce zombie detection          
         
           
 $24.99          
 Fleshing tool, for both my own clothing, and could be used as an improvised weapon          
         
           
 $7.99          
 14 Gauge tie wire (for traps, making trip wire, entangling any wandering zombies, securing my bedding and other items in the trees          
         
           
 $23.97          
 x3 Traps, for both animals or to slow down lurkers          
         
           
 $279.00          
 Baretta U22 pistol, close defense.          
         
           
 $199.99          
 20 gauge pump action          
         
           
 $34.95          
 5 boxes of 20gage #4 buckshot (25 rounds total)          
         
           
 $35.98          
 Zmax shells, (2 boxes, 50 shots total)          
         
           
 $8.99          
 Shotshell load pistol shells for 22, 20 rounds          
         
           
 $17.99          
 Hip holster          
         
           
 $23.99          
 Boomstick cleaning kit          
         
           
 $19.99          
 Water filter          

Primary plans would be to use the wire and traps to actually capture and kill some, and use their entrails and body parts to mask my smell as I made a primary basecamp in the trees. I should be able to conserve ammo fairly easily and use it primarily for hunting, while I can also use trapping for food as well. I would eventually have to venture back into towns to scavenge for additional supplies, which I'd use the zombie entails and such to mask me again (since this is Walking Dead version of them).

The traps could also be used to attract zombies away from my be having living animals captured so they would go towards them to eat, while my scent guard (zombie parts, eww) would help keep them from spending too much time under my tree fort.

Eventually I'd raid a home depot for nails, saws, wood, and anything else that would be usable. But my primary goal is survival and not really fighting unelss I have to. Hell, maybe even try to capture a couple and use them as pets (no jaw, no hands, little to no threat). Yeah I don't watch the show but read the entire wikia on it.


**edit** ok the pics aren't showing up. Guess Basspro has an anti leach on it.

Good call on the water purification. It would be terrible to survive the initial zombie infestation just to end up catching a nasty parasite.

ZMax, I love those bullets. I'm actually buying some as soon as I get my H&K next year.

I always forget twine/rope, but ended up spending most of my money before I got to that part, although I didn't look and I guess I could have gotten it still. Oh well thats the point of this.

The easy shopping trip includes weapons.

How about a general survival shopping list?

No pistols, rifles, shotguns, bows, crossbows, flame throwers, etc.

Just equipment, tools, supplies, etc.

This time there is no budget.

The challenge will be encumbrance...your total list must weigh less than 50lbs (22.68kg) maximum Grin

If no weight is listed then make your best guess, it is just a game after all lol   Roll Eyes

We will use the current site link, Bass Pro Shop

Before I go shopping, is this long, mid, or short term survival (2 years +, 6 months to a year, or less than 6 months).

And how decimated is the human race? Should I be running into them from time to time?
